Congress has a habit of completely changing bills. They will take a bill that makes it thru the House and then have the Senate make major or even complete text change to a bill. This way they can introduce something in the seante that would not have passed on its own merits in the house. Then the House just votes to approve the amendments.

2 bills where the text was completely changged by amendment and the the bill title was changed by amendment.
